Kenya is beautiful and seductive, but may occasionally dangerous as a tourist destination

Some of my friends who own a hotel in Orlando, Florida are originally from the African country of Kenya. They are all Americans, but still visit Kenya every year or so. keep your glowing descriptions of the land and its natural beauty, as well as their personal invitations to be with them, I was seriously considering going to Kenya.

"Kenya is a country full of adventure and fascinating," he enthusiastically. "I like it!"

Well, I really wantedThe timeshare resort Karibuni visit the residence. The goal is only part-time Mambrui, about 20 km north of Malindi, according to the brochure. The resort consists of buildings, surrounded by bougainvillea and lawns. I also visited the local market and buy fresh pineapples and wood carving souvenirs fantasy. Or I could go on safari to see animals in the park, or you can visit the Tsavo East National Park. To the south of Malindi there is also atravel marine reserve with snorkelling, white sand, and adventure in a glass-bottomed boat to see coral reefs and colorful marine life.

A trip to Kenya timeshare preview and see my friend home seemed like a good idea.

Just today, but my dream day ended when I travel to receive notification via e-mail to this part of Africa from the SU Department of State. In addition, you should always remain vigilant in the current political situation in each country able to planto visit.

There is obviously widespread violence in parts of Kenya, including Nairobi and areas of most cities Eldoret, Kisumu and Mombasa. Trouble escalation from the December 30 announcement that President Kibaki won the elections of December 27th was.

Although violence has dropped in recent days, is still isolated incidents of disorder reported. The good news is that the availability of food, fuel, cash card and mobile air improved. So far, thereThere were no reports of injured American citizens.

The three western provinces of Kenya, Nyanza and Western Rift Valley are the most affected by the unrest. Road travel in western Kenya remains dangerous. Sporadic illegal road blocks by gangs or criminal elements make the travel is often only in convoys escorted by the police.

Some but not all are dependent on American citizens who were outside of Kenya when the violence began, and delayed the return to the country since returned.Peace Corps Volunteers who have left the three western provinces still not among the areas where they were stationed initially returned. American citizens resident in Kenya are encouraged by U.S. officials to carefully consider their own safety. situations of protection and security make travel very risky, both within and outside Kenya.

Kenya international airports (Jomo Kenyatta in Nairobi and Mombasa Moi) apparently normal. My advisers tell me, are seatsFor international flights from Kenya. Most domestic flights are still operating in Kenya, although some flights canceled due to lack of fuel remain.

It seems that the protests may continue sporadically. These protests often occur very quickly and without warning. U.S. citizens were advised to avoid all demonstrations and protests, since even protests intended to be peaceful can turn violent in minutes.

The situationKenya should remain politically unstable and volatile for the foreseeable future. For the foreseeable future, then I'm there every delay. No matter how convincing my friends to be, and how fascinating the country, the risk of travel is too high.
